Jesus, Lord, to you we raise,
once revealed, when heaven's star
brought the wise men from afar;
Branch of royal David's stem
in your birth at Bethlehem,
Word before the world began,
God revealed to us in man.
2 God revealed at Jordan's stream,
prophet, priest and king supreme,
once revealed in power divine
changing water into wine:
Cana's holy wedding guest
keeping to the last the best,
Word before the world began,
God revealed to us in man.
3 God revealed in valiant fight,
conquering the devil's might,
sins forgiven, sickness healed,
life restored and God revealed:
once revealed in gracious will
ever bringing good from ill,
Word before the world began,
God revealed to us in man.
4 Stars shall fall and heavens fade,
sun and moon shall dark be made;
Christ will then like lightning shine,
all will see the glorious sign:
all will then the trumpet hear,
all will see the Son appear,
Word before the world began,
God revealed to us in man. Scripture: Matthew 24:29-31 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. GEORGE'S WINDSOR
